Whoa!

I hope you didn’t think I was talking to you.

I was commenting on the article.

I haven’t re-read my post but I recall it being a missive about strategy.

I teach these things to other salesmen and help them move beyond single issue tactics which result in a proven 85% failure.

However, if they follow my advice we can move from tacticsw a real strategy which will change that to 85% successful engagements.

Didn’t say nothing about the guy’s very good and noble intentions.

But, he isn’t serious. Except that he wants the opportunity to demonstrate the horrors of abortion and the beauty of life that exist in the womb, that is a very real human baby.

He won’t be able to make himself visible without more issues.

Perhaps I came on a bit strong. We are in complete agreement about strategy. If this man is serious, he will broaden his platform.

That’s all I was saying. My honest and straighforward appraisal.

I love running into chumps on a sales call who are chumps, salesmen wannabe’s(but lazy), salesmen(good intentions) and Professional Salesmen who are their clients Trusted Adviser.

Being in the position of Trusted Adviser means you have broadview and understanding of the target’s requirements now and in the reasonable future.

He is going to have to attach himself to dinner table issues.

Abortion can be his primary issue but he can give life to his constituencies top three issues and make certain they understand that abortion is his personal mission.

But he must represent the people.

Something like that. Boehner isn’t really at risk anyway.

With the mood the country is in I wouldn’t go so far as to say Boehner isn’t at risk. Look at NY this past Tuesday and Turner never represented himself as one to be wishy washy. We are looking for those types of people. Boehner is wishy washy. Grant it, he’s is in an incredibly difficult situation but he seems to be more likely to take the easy route; the path of least resistance etc. than stand firm. Even if he isn’t challenged, he needs to step down from his position as Speaker. (imho)

You have now been put on notice Sir.

He was put on notice last November, and since then he and the rest of the weak, effete, Republican elite have been laughing at the ineffectiveness of conservatives as the Crybaby enables all of Obama's programs.

Since he's in the House and not the Senate, I will go that far. His district isn't likely to elect a Democrat very soon and within his district he is relatively well liked, there aren't any colleges or universities that could stir things up.

Essentially his district is a perfect fit for him. He won't lose it unless, as I said, we get pictures of him and a house page or some other type of scandal.

There is no need for me to read more of that nonsense.

This is a Trojan Horse candidate.

Rush has been way off base in his attacks on Boehner.

The run is constitutional. All he has to be is from the same State to run.

Accepting this fraudulent Tea Partyer does not suit me.

Central is a coward as well, don’t forget that.

Once you get past his typical bluster, he runs and hides.
